Re: [SRS] Can't share connection any more
Forgot to mention that I cannot access anything on the links on the E-bay page. Clicking a link brings up a named URL (i.e., www.xxx.com) and I get a page cannot be displayed error (the usual one).

| Applied changes from FAQ 6473. Looks like computer is trying to connect to a site, but then fails.
On the laptop, let's look at the tabs on TCP/IP / Advanced. Maybe something there isn't right:
DNS tab:
DNS Server addresses:
192.168.0.1
198.77.116.8
Checked for "Append primary and connection specific DNS addresses."
Checked for "Append parent suffixes of the primary DNS suffix"
DNS suffix for this connection: www.direcway.com
All other entries are blank.
WINS tab:
Nothing in "WINS addresses, in order of use"
Checked for "Enable LMHOSTS lookup"
NetBios Setting:
Checked for "Default"
Options tab:
"Optional settings" TCP/IP filtering"

ARE YOU SITTING DOWN, SEAGREEN, SATBURN and F.A.B.????
I'm CONNECTED!! WHOOPEEE! Maybe it took some time for the settings I made to settle in, but I am now connected to the Internet! The connection is slow, but I'll worry about that later.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

seagreen posting from client machine:
Your settings match mine with the following exception:
- on the DNS tab, at the bottom, I have a check in the box that says "Register this connection's addresses in DNS"
In your browser settings do you have the proxy configured correctly?
Tools => Internet Options => Connections tab => LAN Settings => check mark in use a proxy server => Advanced => 192.168.0.1:83 in HTTP field only.
If you already have those settings, then go back one screen and put a check mark in "Automatically detect Settings" under Automatic configuration. Then try to browse. |

Glad to hear it. The LCCU utility should help your performance on the laptop if you can get it downloaded now and run that on the laptop. In the meantime, follow Seagreen's post and enjoy your WAP!!!

My TCP/IP numbers (right click Direcway icon on the desktop) are:
IP address: 10.80.45.62
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 66.82.24.21
Preferred DNS: 198.77.116.8
Alternate DNS: 207.217.120.83
I got tired of reading the thread after 1 page but something from your initial post rung a bell. I'm not sure if you know much about how IP addresses work but with the arrangement you have listed, it is saying that your "subnet" consists of the addresses 10.80.45.1 - 10.80.45.254. As such, your computer is unable to reach the Default gateway which is at 66.82.24.21. The default gateway would be the router between your modem and the internet through which all internet traffic to and from your computer flows.
The default gateway is the router that enables you to communicate with any other subnet on the internet so it seems to me that if these numbers were corrected (they would have to be supplied by your isp) you would regain connectivity to the outside world.
In several of your other posts, you seemed to indicate that you were connected to your access point but could not access the internet. That would be a symptom of the error I'm describing.
Hope this helps. |

Those numbers are supplied by the ISP.
Locking the thread - it seems to have ended up on the first page.
